Independent files for 2nd District County Commission seat Staff Reports

Jesse Brinson Jr. filed Monday to run as an independent for the 2nd District Douglas

County Commission seat.

Heather Dill, deputy elections clerk with the Douglas County Clerk’s Office, said Brinson, of Lawrence, filed shortly before the noon dead-

line on Monday to get on the November general election ballot. To become eligible, Brinson had to present a petition with the names of at least 1,026, or 4 percent, of the 2nd

District’s registered voters.

With the successful petition, Brinson will be on the ballot with incumbent Democrat Nancy Thellman in the November general election.

Topeka — The state of Kansas started off the new fiscal year in July with a $12.8 million shortfall in tax collections, the Kansas Department of Revenue said Monday.

The shortfall was fueled by slower-than-expected growth in retail sales taxes, which came in $10.8 million below estimates, and a steep falloff in corporate income taxes, which were $5.9 million below estimates and 50 percent lower than July 2015.

Those shortfalls were partially offset by modest growth in individual income taxes, which were $1.1 million higher than estimates, and 8.5 percent higher than July 2015.

Total tax receipts in July were $9 million higher, or 2.7 percent greater, than in July last year. Those figures prompted Department of Revenue officials to express some optimism.

“We are pleased to start the new fiscal year with positive individual income tax growth, but concerned with the continued weak

Primary changes the rules regarding who is eligible to vote in which races.

But he said his biggest concern about the primary is that the recent steady stream of court decisions regarding the state’s voting laws may be so confusing to voters that many of them may not bother trying to cast a ballot.

“For my part, we’ve got this under control,” Shew said. “The biggest issue for me is confusion among the voters. With each new ruling, each new court case, it just adds to the confusion.”

At issue in all of the various court rulings is the Kansas Secure and Fair Elections, or “SAFE,” Act. That’s the law that Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach championed in 2011 and that went fully into effect in 2013.

Among other things, it requires all new voters who register after the law took effect to show documentary proof of U.S. citizenship in order to complete their voting registration. Before that law took effect, people only needed to attest, under penalty of perjury, that they were U.S. citizens, the same standard that is still in effect in most other states.

Since the law was enacted, it is estimated that more than 40,000 people have had their registrations placed “in suspense” for not providing valid citizenship documents. Many of those have been younger voters attempting to register for the first time, and a large percentage of them did not affiliate with either major political party.

Applications are now purged from the list if the voter fails to complete registration within 90 days.

As of last week, there were 24,804 names on the suspense list, according to Kobach’s office.

The citizenship law has been challenged in both state and federal courts on several fronts. In May, a federal judge in Kansas City, Kan., said it conflicts with at least one portion of a federal law, the National Voter Registration Act, also known as the “motor voter” law, which says people can register to vote in federal races at the same time they apply for or renew their driver’s licenses.

That federal law, however, does not require people to show proof of citizenship.

In May, a federal judge in Kansas City, Kan., ordered the state to register an estimated 17,500 “motor voter” registrants, at least so they could vote in federal races. And so the plan was to allow those voters to cast provisional ballots, and county officials were instructed to count their votes only in congressional and U.S. Senate primaries.

On Friday, Shawnee County District Judge Larry Hendricks issued a temporary injunction blocking the state from conducting a “dual” election.

Over the weekend, Shew said, Kobach’s office sent instructions to county election officers telling them that the “motor voter” registrants, as well as those who used the old federal mail-in card, still must cast provisional ballots, which means their votes will be set aside on election night and won’t be counted until all 105 county Boards of Canvassers meet next week.

But those voters will be allowed to vote in all races.

The Douglas County Board of Canvassers will meet on Aug. 11 to certify the final, official tally from the primaries.

And with the prospect that potentially hundreds of ballots in Douglas County — and thousands of ballots statewide — could wind up in the provisional pile, Shew said it’s possible that the outcome of many close races around the state won’t be known until those canvassing boards release their final tallies.

Shew said voters who want to check the status of their registrations can call his office, 832-5267. They can also look up their status on the county’s voter registration website.

In Johnson County, there are more than 4,200 voters affected by Judge Hendricks’ ruling, and in Sedgwick County, the state’s largest county, there are about 4,300 such voters, election commissioners in those counties reported.

Both of those counties have several contested races for state legislative seats that are expected to be close today.

Kobach said Monday that he expects about 24 percent of the state’s 1.75 million registered voters, or roughly 410,000 people, to cast ballots in the primaries. That would be up slightly from the 23.2 percent turnout recorded in 2012, the most recent similar election when both the Kansas House and Senate were up for election.

Shew and other county election officers in some of the state’s largest counties reported about average turnout for advance voting, which ended at noon Monday.

for the property, which is consistent with other sales the city has made.

Staff members are recommending approval of the sale. They note that the project isn’t seeking any city incentives, such as tax breaks. City commissioners will consider approving the sale at their 5:45 p.m. meeting today at City Hall. City officials want to be careful about selling off property in VenturePark for nonbusiness park uses.

But city staff members say this particular piece of property is not likely to be highly sought after by businesses because it is not yet directly connected to one of the business park’s new streets.

The city has sold some VenturePark property previously for nonbusiness park uses. The city in late 2014 sold a small section just west of this site for an existing office building that needed additional parking. That group paid $1.19 per square foot for the property, which is the same rate the city is using for this proposed sale.

Gwaltney’s group has shared a concept development plan with the city. The plans also show that a portion of the site

would be reserved for a future development that could include a freestanding restaurant building. No word on what that may be.

The Don’s Steakhouse site and the adjacent Diamond Everley location have been candidates for redevelopment for quite some time. A hotel, though, may catch some people by surprise. The hotel will be the most eastern hotel in the city, and Gwaltney said in his letter to the city that was desirable. He believes there are business travelers who would rather be on the east side of the city because of the presence of Kansas City.

Surely the development also is betting on increased business activity in adjacent VenturePark, which could drive some hotel stays.

Thus far the park doesn’t have a tenant. Menards has announced plans to build a warehouse and manufacturing facility at the park, but that project hasn’t broken ground.

We’ve reported it has been put on hold by Menards, and it is uncertain when it will get started.

Jurors begin deliberations in dorm rape trial

The trial for the second of two Haskell Indian Nations University students accused of rape is now in the hands of jurors after attorneys finished presenting evidence on Monday afternoon.

The two defendants, Galen Satoe, 21, and Jar- Satoe ed Wheeler, 20, are accused of raping a 19-year-old fellow student on Nov. 15, 2014, in a university dormitory.

Satoe’s trial began July 25. He faces two felony counts of rape, one felony count of aggravated criminal sodomy, Wheeler one felony count of attempted rape and one felony count of

NEW BALDWIN CITY FIRE CHIEF TERRY BAKER HOLDS ONE OF THE YOUNGSTERS who helped him christen the Baldwin City Fire Department’s newest fire truck. It is a tradition at the department to wash new trucks with water from trucks from neighboring departments, which in this case was the Willow Springs Rural Fire Department. The christening followed Baker’s reception of his badge.

Baldwin welcomes new fire chief, truck

By Elvyn Jones ejones@ljworld.com

For the first time in 35 years, Baldwin City has a new fire chief.

On Monday, Baldwin City Mayor Marilyn Pearse pinned the chief badge on Terry Baker.

He succeeds Allen Craig, who served in that capacity for the last 35 years.

“I have big shoes to fill,” Baker said after the ceremony. “I thank

everyone for supporting me. I look forward to working with the rural departments and building our relationship with Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical.”

Baker has been a volunteer member of the Baldwin City Fire Department for nine years and served as assistant chief for the past year and a half. The members of the department elected to promote him to

chief after Craig retired last month.

At a brief ceremony in which Baker received his chief badge, the department celebrated the arrival of a new fire truck. The Baldwin City Council approved earlier this year the $30,000 purchase of a 1993 General truck from a fire department in Minnesota.

Baker said the truck has 22,000 miles on it and should last the city from

10 to 15 years.

It replaces a worn-out truck with a standard transmission many new volunteers didn’t know how to operate, Baker said. The truck, with a cab with front and back seats, also has the capability for foam fire suppression and is fully supplied medically, he said.

A University of Kansas student was killed in a car crash Sunday afternoon on the Kansas Turnpike.

The one-vehicle accident occurred around 1:20 p.m. near the interchange of Interstate 70 and Interstate 435 in Kansas City, Kan., according to the Kansas Turnpike Authority accident report. Shuofeng Yu, 20, was one of three occupants in the car, which was headed east when the driver, a 19-year-old man, lost control of the vehicle and struck a set of steel bridge pillars.

University spokeswoman Erinn BarcombPeterson confirmed that Shuofeng Yu was enrolled in KU’s Academic

“I am saddened to learn of the death of Shuofeng Yu,” KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little said in a statement. “It is with a heavy heart that I extend, on behalf of the entire university community, our deepest condolences to his family and friends.”

Governor to retain head of aging and disability services Topeka (ap) — Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback is promoting his interim secretary for aging and disability services to secretary.

Brownback’s office announced the move Monday. Tim Keck has been the top ad- Keck ministrator at the Department for Aging and Disability Services since January.

Keck previously worked as an attorney at the Department of Health and Environment and for Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer.

He took over at KDADS shortly after

the federal government decertified the state’s mental hospital in Osawatomie. The department applied last week to have part of the hospital recertified.

Keck’s new appointment as secretary will require state Senate confirmation next year. There’d been some bipartisan concern about Keck not being promoted earlier so his appointment could have been considered before lawmakers adjourned their annual session June 1.

BALDWIN CITY

School district’s City approves referendum on sales tax 2017 budget lowers

By Elvyn Jones

ejones@ljworld.com

The Baldwin City Council voted Monday to put before voters next year a half-cent sales tax for a community center.

The referendum was set for Feb. 7, 2017. The approved language states that the tax, if approved, would become effective May 1, 2017, and that the money raised would be used for general government purposes of the city, including providing funds “to construct, equip, operate and maintain a public community center.” City Administrator Glenn Rodden said from past experience he learned to keep the referendum language broad so that it would secure the needed approval of the Kansas Attorney General’s Office.

The measure was approved 4-1 with Councilman Tony Brown casting the lone dissenting vote.

“I cannot support the funding mechanism,” he said. “I think a sales tax of this amount would be incredibly regressive and anti-business.”

Councilman Steve Bauer also voiced concern

about the amount of the sales tax proposed, although he voted in support of the referendum.

“I wish we didn’t have to go to a half cent,” he said.

“I’m not sure I’m in favor of that, but I do favor letting the public vote on it.”

The sales tax would provide half of the community center’s estimated $5 million construction cost. A 20-year bond is assumed, although the referendum approved has no sunset clause. When Councilwoman Kathy Gerstner raised that issue, it was agreed there probably would be maintenance needed when the facility was paid off in 20 years.

The other $2.5 million for the community center would be raised through an increase of 2 mills to the BCRC’s annual mill levy. Because the BCRC has no taxing authority, it has an arrangement with the Baldwin school board to levy the 4 mills used to help with its annual operational costs.

Monday’s City Council decision was the latest development in a discussion that started in November 2015, when Baldwin City Recreation

Commission board member Ginny Honomichl first shared with the City Council the BCRC’s decision to start a push for a community center.

Since that time, the BCRC has secured the Baldwin school board’s commitment to donate land north of Baldwin High School for the center.

BCRC Executive Director Steve Friend requested last month that the school board approve 2 mills of additional taxes for 20 years to pay for the other half of the community center. Unlike the city sales tax, if the school board were to approve a 2-mill increase for the community center, a referendum would not be required unless there was a successful protest petition.

The Baldwin school board, City Council and BCRC board will have a special joint meeting at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 8 at the Baldwin Junior High School, 400 Eisenhower St., to discuss the community center and its funding.

Council members also approved a resolution supporting the creation of a neighborhood

revitalization program.

Such programs create districts within which property owners can receive property tax rebates on the value added from improvements they make to their properties.

Taxes continue to be paid on the base value of a property before the improvements.

The approved resolution “anticipates” rewarding Flint Hills Group’s request for a 15-year, 95 percent rebate for the improvements it plans for the old middle school at 704 Chapel St. Tom Larkin of Flint Hills Group told the City Commission last month that the $5 million of improvements the developer would make in the old school to convert it to affordable apartments would increase the property’s appraised value to $700,000. If not abated, that would amount to about $6,000 annually in additional taxes, which would be divided among the city, Douglas County and the Baldwin school district.

Restaurant inspections yield short, wide-ranging list

T

hree Asian-food restaurants, a sandwich shop and a convenience store all made late July’s short restaurant inspection list.

Twice each month, I take a look at inspection results and report every place either listed out of compliance or with 10 or more code violations. Full reports are available online at agriculture.ks.gov.

There you can find details about specific violations, which can vary greatly.

Noncritical citations include unlabeled products, improperly stored cleaning materials, minor plumbing issues and more. Critical violations include cross-contamination of raw and cooked foods, insect and rodent issues, and unclean food preparation areas.

Some violations may be corrected during the inspection, while others take longer to fix and require follow-up inspections.

the incident, Satoe began to force himself on the woman, Decena said.

When the woman cried to Wheeler for help, Wheeler did not help but instead joined Satoe and the two men raped their friend.

Decena showed jurors video clips of Satoe’s interview with police after the incident was reported. In the video he reluctantly admitted to penetrating the woman, she said.

Decena also drew jurors’ attention to forensic evidence shown during the trial that showed the woman’s DNA present on Satoe’s genitals.

However, during her closing statements Keck argued that the sex was consensual and

those listed as out of compliance, met the basic requirements to safely remain open, unless otherwise noted.

With this regular report I try to provide basic information about food inspections in Douglas County. But because of the sheer volume of inspections, it’s difficult to offer detailed information about each establishment.

Here are Douglas County restaurant inspection results for the second half of July: l Red Pepper Chinese

Restaurant, 821 Iowa St., last had a regular inspection on July 28 and 12 violations were found.

The restaurant is currently listed as out of compliance. l Jade Garden Restaurant, 1410 Kasold Drive, last had a regular inspection on July 26 and 17 violations were found. The restaurant is currently listed as out of compliance. l Miceli Market & Deli, 3300 W. Sixth St., last had a regular inspection on July 26 and 13 violations were found.

however, put the Kansas Chamber squarely at odds with the U.S. Chamber, which has been sponsoring independent TV ads in the 1st District criticizing Huelskamp and supporting Marshall.

A poll released July 24 by the Docking Institute of Public Affairs at Fort Hays State University

showed Huelskamp and Marshall locked in a statistical dead heat, with 15 percent of the voters surveyed still undecided about the race.

the woman reported it as a rape after the fact because she was embarrassed that her friends and Wheeler’s teammates would find out. Wheeler was a player on Haskell’s football team at the time of the incident.

“She realized it might get out to the football team,” Keck said. “She then told her friends it was rape.”

Keck argued throughout the trial that there were inconsistencies in the criminal investigation and in the woman’s testimony. She also questioned whether interview tactics used by police were “coercive” or putting words in Satoe’s mouth while he was mentally exhausted and deprived of sleep.

While Keck argued that the woman was claiming rape because she was embarrassed, Decena questioned what motive the woman might have to

make such an accusation against her friends.

“This case is about rape; it’s not about regret,” Decena said.

The two suspects were arrested on Nov. 15, 2014, and were later released from jail after posting a $75,000 bond each. Both were expelled from the university.

A jury failed to reach a unanimous verdict in the June trial of Wheeler, who faces two felony rape charges and one felony count of aggravated criminal sodomy.

A second trial is scheduled to begin for him on Dec. 12.

Jurors began deliberating around 3:30 p.m. in Satoe’s case and adjourned for the day at 5 p.m. They will resume deliberations at 9 a.m. today.

Prudent move In the uncertain world of school finance, it makes sense for local school districts to look for efficiencies.

L

awrence wants only the best for its public schools and has consistently approved local spending to support school budgets.

Nonetheless, it’s hard not to be pleased by a 3.165-mill decrease in the local property tax to support schools.

Faced with state budget cuts, Lawrence school officials set out to find efficiencies that could help them reduce spending for the coming year. The budget that received preliminary approval from the board last week, included the elimination of 17 teaching positions. Fortunately most of those positions already were open; only three staff members had contracts that Of course, weren’t renewed. there are Those three positions were cut at aspects of the district’s high the budget schools after Suthat raise perintendent Kyle concerns. Key Hayden worked with principals to identify among those steps. is the board’s cost-cutting “There were prodecision to posals that allowed us to combine some take $2.75 classes, rename million from some classes and esthe district’s sentially consolidate reserve fund and gain some efficiencies, where we to cover a like we could rebudget deficit. felt duce three teaching positions and still deliver the same curriculum,” Hayden told the board.

Any taxpayer has to applaud an effort that reduces spending without reducing services.

Of course, there are aspects of the budget that raise concerns. Key among those is the board’s decision to take $2.75 million from the district’s reserve fund to cover a budget deficit. The move was taken in response to criticism from some state legislators that school districts were keeping too much money in their reserve funds, but depleting those funds to pay for operating expenses obviously isn’t a sustainable strategy for Lawrence or any other school district in the state.

Much of the property tax reduction was the result of legislators pulling back reductions to equalization aid in response to the recent Kansas Supreme Court ruling.

The court still is considering a lawsuit related to the adequacy of state school funding, and it’s hard to predict how its decision in that case will affect future funding levels.

These are uncertain times for public schools in Kansas, and finding ways to trim spending is a prudent move for local schools.

Why Clinton must be elected Now that the presidential race is truly on, anyone who cares about America’s foreign policy and national security has no option but to vote for Hillary Clinton.

The most urgent reason is the need to prevent a mercurial, ill-informed hot head from ever having his hand on the nuclear button. The second reason is that Clinton has a particular skill set that is vital for these unstable times.

Donald Trump has demonstrated over and over again that he doesn’t have the temperament to be commander-in-chief. He flies off the handle at criticism and shoots off his mouth with reckless abandon (like his call for Russia to hack and release Clinton’s emails).

Many Trump supporters appear to believe he can compensate for his flaws by surrounding himself with foreign has already raised questions policy heavy hitters. But he’s about where the United failed to do so. Whereas RonStates is and will be.”

Having recently returned from Germany and France, where I spoke with government officials and foreign policy experts, I can attest to the bewilderment and shock of our close allies. “He can’t possibly win, can he?” was the question I heard everywhere. trubin@phillynews.com Our foreign partners are also bewildered at how eager ald Reagan, to whom Trump Trump is to belittle them.

She crazy.

“He has already jeopar- grasps — as Trump doesn’t dized our national security, — that “Americanism” and

Trudy Rubin

“globalism” can’t be separated. Prosperity at home requires stability abroad.

Moreover, Clinton recognizes that the global challenge to democracies from Moscow, Beijing and the Islamic State requires that alliances be solidified, not broken.

Yes, she has made mistakes (who wouldn’t have in decades of public service?). Her staffing choices have not always been wise. Her use of a public email server was clearly unwise (although only a few dozen of 30,000 emails examined by the FBI had classified information). The Libya intervention ended poorly (although the options were all bad).

And the closely held White House foreign policy team left her little space to shape policy during her years as secretary of state. But what came through during her tenure was her toughness when confronting adversaries. In summer 2012, she — along with Panetta, CIA chief David Petraeus and top army brass, wanted to arm moderate Syrian rebels (when they truly existed) as leverage to force Damascus to the bargaining table — a move that might have ended the Syrian conflict. The Obama team refused.

Clinton has taken a firmer stand than Obama toward Russia’s hybrid warfare in Ukraine. She has advocated a more forceful effort to end the Islamic State caliphate (without sending U.S. ground troops). Yet her stance is far different from the reckless Trump rhetoric, which promises to defeat the Islamic State overnight

but gives no details. As Clinton ruefully admitted at the Democratic convention, she is a stickler for details.

Of course, this is a bizarre election year — when the isolationist Trump has pulled GOP foreign policy to the left of Obama, and Democrats have taken on the mantle of patriotism.

Clinton has the support of retired Gen. John Allen, and other retired brass, and clearly is comfortable dealing with the military. Yet some Americans may fear an activist Clinton foreign policy will pull the country into another conflict.

But the Democratic candidate has made clear that, whenever possible, she prefers tough diplomacy to force. She showed her chops when she maneuvered Europe, Russia, and China into supporting tough sanctions against Iran. The final Iran deal was negotiated after she left office, but she has pledged to hold Iran to every detail.

Trump, on the other hand, wants to junk the deal, which would lead either to an Iranian nuke or another Mideast war.

Indeed, the irony of this election year is that the GOP, which was once the party dedicated to keeping America safe, has put forward a candidate whose temperament would gravely endanger U.S. security.

That’s why — whether or not you like Clinton — it’s so essential that she be elected to the job.

Clinton speech recycled talking points Environmentalists should be pleased with Hillary Clinton’s acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention Thursday night, because it was largely recycled talking points we have heard for decades.

Putting aside the theatrics designed to make Hillary Clinton appear to be something she is not — the white pantsuit was a nice touch, as white is traditionally the color of purity and also the color of the suffragettes — we’ve heard it all before.

First there was the charge that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump cannot be trusted with the nuclear codes. The same was said about Ronald Reagan in 1980. Democrats called him a “cowboy” who might blow up the world. Instead, he rebuilt America’s military, as Trump has promised to do, and helped bring down the Soviet Union. Can Hillary be trusted with classified documents?

What would an acceptance speech by a Democrat be without promises of more programs? She’d have done better listing past and current programs that have not worked and vowing to get rid of them. But that’s not the way of Democrats.

They pile on more programs so distracted voters won’t

notice the failure of the old ones. For the left, intentions matter more than results.

Hillary Clinton’s proposals will add hugely to the debt, now approaching $20 trillion.

But wait. She will pay for all this new stuff by taxing those obscenely wealthy Wall Street people, who paid her and her husband millions to speak to them. No one knows what about. She won’t release the transcripts.

Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) has analyzed Clinton’s proposed $1 trillion list of tax increases.

They include: l Increasing income taxes by $350 billion in the form of a 28 percent cap on itemized deductions. l Businesses would be slapped with a tax hike of $250 billion through “undefined business tax reform.” l There’s the euphemistically named “fairness tax” of $400 billion she says would restore “basic fairness” to

our tax code and an increase in the death tax. Real fairness would eliminate the undecipherable tax code and replace it with a fair tax, but Democrats would never go for that.

ATR notes: “...there are even more Clinton tax hike proposals not included in the tally above. Her campaign has failed to release specific details for many of her proposals. The true Clinton net tax hike figure is likely much higher than $1 trillion.” Read more at: www.atr.org/full-list-hillary-s-planned-tax-hikes.

To my surprise, many in the mainstream media, who couldn’t stop talking about the historical significance of the first woman nominated for president by a major political party, thought her speech fell flat. Robert Draper of The New York Times tweeted: “Not well written, not well delivered.” Tom Bevan of Real Clear Politics tweeted: “Clinton is giving the eighth best speech of the convention.” Ben Dreyfuss of the farleft magazine, Mother Jones, tweeted: “This speech isn’t great.”

Despite the claims of her husband that she is the best “change maker” he’s ever known, change was what President Obama promised,

but failed to deliver. She would be Obama’s third term.

Polls increasingly indicate a majority of voters want real change this time around. More people are being drawn to Trump’s message that the political system is rigged and that Hillary Clinton is “crooked.”

It’s difficult to disprove a negative, especially when the public has made up its mind. The latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News analysis has found that one-fifth of Democrats view her unfavorably, “more than any previous Democratic presidential nominee on the eve of their party’s convention.”

Donald Trump also suffers from high negatives, but because of Hillary Clinton’s thin record of accomplishment she will have to tear down Trump because as Kimberley Strassel concludes in her Wall Street Journal column, “It’s Hillary against Hillary. This November is about whether Americans can look at 40 years of Clinton chicanery and nearly a decade of broken Obama promises, and still pull the lever for her.”

It’s going to be a formidable task to try to recycle Hillary Clinton.

corporate tax receipts, which many states in our region are experiencing,” Revenue Secretary Nick Jordan said. “Sales tax receipts remain weak in counties with significant agriculture and oil economies.”

But Monday’s report continues a trend that occurred throughout all of the last fiscal year when revenues fell short nearly every month. Even after revenue forecasts were revised downward in April, the final total for the year was $106 million less than expected.

Those shortfalls forced Gov. Sam Brownback

ing strong challenges from more moderate Republicans.

House Democratic Leader Tom Burroughs of Kansas City was quick to issue a statement similar to many he has issued in the past, blaming Brownback for the state’s financial condition.

“The financial hole Gov. Brownback and his rubber-stamp allies in the Legislature have created keeps getting deeper,” Burroughs said. “This only underscores the need for a more moderate and Democratic Legislature next year and that starts in the voting booths (today) and this November.”

KU officials are expected to announce later this month how those cuts will be distributed across the university system.

The continuing shortfalls have also become a campaign issue heading into the Aug. 2 primaries. Many analysts have blamed the shortfalls on the sweeping tax cuts that Brownback and his allies in the Legislature championed in 2012 and 2013, and many of Brownback’s conservative allies in the Legislature are now fac-

Sans rules, intersex athletes in spotlight Human rights, athletic fairness at issue as experts debate the effects of hormones on performance Scott Gleeson and Erik Brady USA TODAY Sports

Caster Semenya is a South African runner who could emerge as one of the most compelling figures of the Rio Olympic Games. She is favored to win gold at 800 meters while perhaps breaking track’s longest-standing world record, even as her stunning speed is leading to uncomfortable controversy at the uncertain intersection of gender and athletics — and of human rights and athletic fairness.

Semenya has never said she is intersex — a word preferred to the stigmatizing hermaphrodite — but speculation follows her around the globe, her private parts a mortifying matter of public debate. (Intersex is an umbrella term for people who are

born with sex characteristics “that do not fit typical binary notions of male or female bodies,” according to a definition by the human rights arm of the United Nations.)

Track observers believe Semenya is hyperandrogenous, meaning her body naturally produces high amounts of testosterone, the hormone that helps build muscle, endurance and speed. The International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF), track and field’s governing body, has rules limiting the amount of naturally v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

South Africa’s Caster Semenya has been subjected to invasive and embarrassing gender tests because of her muscular build and blazing speed.

After a year of attacks that targeted ex-prisoner-of-war John McCain, various Republican primary opponents and a federal judge’s “Mexican heritage,” Donald Trump may face his biggest uproar yet over the denigration of the Muslim parents of a slain U.S. soldier.

Numerous Republicans, including McCain, and military groups criticized Trump for what they called the disrespect shown Khizr and Ghazala Khan, the parents of a U.S. soldier killed in Iraq who have criticized the real estate mogul for “smears” of Muslims.

McCain, an Arizona senator and the 2008 GOP presidential nominee, said the party’s nod does not come with “unfettered license to defame those who are the best among us.”

Brian Duffy, national commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, a group that warmly welcomed Trump to its convention last week, said, “Election year or not, the VFW will not tolerate anyone berating a Gold Star family member for exercising his or her right of speech or expression.”

Trump, who emerged from similar flaps to become the GOP presidential nominee, maintained his feud with Khizr Khan on Monday, accusing him of unfair attacks during last week’s Democratic convention and in a string of subsequent interviews.

“Mr. Khan, who does not know me, viciously attacked me from the stage of the DNC and is now all over T.V. doing the same — Nice!” Trump tweeted.

Trump did not address the controversy during a campaign event Monday afternoon in Columbus, Ohio. Phyllis Matlack, 64, of Greenfield, Ohio, who attended the event, suggested the decision not to bring it up was a sign Trump is listening to good advice. “I think he needs to just put it to rest. Enough has been said. You’re just digging up stuff and making it worse,” she said.

“I feel if he surrounds himself with the right people, he will be fine.”

Khan said Monday that the New York businessman is “ignorant” of free speech and the U.S. Constitution.

CDC: All pregnant women should be screened for Zika Unprecedented Miami travel warning issued Liz Szabo

@lizszabo USA TODAY

All pregnant women in the U.S. should be assessed for possible Zika exposure during every prenatal visit, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Monday.

The advice from the CDC came as federal health officials also urged women who are pregnant or are considering becoming

pregnant to avoid a Miami neighborhood that is the site of a Zika outbreak.

Zika can cause catastrophic birth defects in developing fetuses, including microcephaly, which results in an abnormally small skull and, in most cases, incomplete brain development.

The CDC has warned pregnant women since January to avoid areas with Zika outbreaks. Until now, those travel warnings were limited to foreign countries and U.S. territories.

Now, the CDC is warning pregnant women to avoid the Wynwood neighborhood in Miami, where 14 people have been infect-

ed with Zika. Such a move seems unprecedented in CDC history.

Florida also confirmed Monday 10 more homegrown cases of Zika in people infected by local mosquitoes. CDC officials said women who have visited Wynwood, a cutting-edge community known for splashy murals, street artists and trendy stores, since June 15 should avoid getting pregnant for at least eight weeks.

CDC officials believe this is the first time the federal health agency has warned people to avoid a community in the continental U.S., agency spokesman Tom Skinner said.

At Florida’s request, the CDC is

sending an emergency response team to the state to help control the outbreak. Two CDC staff are already working in Florida, with six more planning to join them.

Controlling the cluster of Zika

cases is proving difficult, CDC Director Tom Frieden said. “We don’t have ideal ways to control the mosquitoes that control Zika,” he said. “In Miami, aggressive mosquito-control measures don’t seem to be working as well as we would have liked.”

The Miami cases are a major development because — with the exception of one Zika case related to a lab accident — all infections in the U.S. until now had been diagnosed in people who traveled abroad or those who had sex with a traveler. Although Zika is largely spread by mosquitoes, both men and women can transmit the virus sexually.

Best baby gift? A future free of Zika Liz Szabo

@lizszabo USA TODAY

I love shopping for baby showers. The bunny-covered blankets. The pink and blue pajamas. Goodnight Moon.

We shower expectant parents with love and presents, along with the occasional bit of unsolicited parenting advice, because we want the best for them and the tiny miracles about to change their lives.

It’s beyond our power to guarantee these couples what they want most — a healthy child.

But this summer, all of us can boost the odds for babies in our communities because we can all help prevent Zika.

The mosquito-borne virus, which can cause catastrophic birth defects, has arrived on our shores. Florida Gov. Rick Scott said his state has diagnosed a total of 14 home-grown cases spread by mosquitoes breeding just north of downtown Miami.

Zika’s arrival in Florida means people don’t have to go to South America to contract a terrible illness. A pregnant woman could be at risk in her own backyard.

There is no vaccine and no treatment for Zika, so experts say the best way to protect pregnant women and their babies is to control the mosquitoes that spread the virus. The Aedes ae-

They inhabit our backyards, live under our deck chairs and in our flower pots. If given the chance, they’ll live under our beds and rest in our closets.

Zika mosquitoes don’t need a lot of water to breed, either.

They’ll lay eggs in a bottle cap of rainwater. Eggs hatch in a few days, and females start biting almost immediately.

It’s possible you’ve got these mosquitoes in your yard right now. They could be breeding in

the rainwater left by last night’s thunderstorm, lurking in the leaves in your gutters, in the seat of your lawn mower, the folds of a plastic tarp or the watering can next to your prized tomatoes.

For most of us, a mosquito bite is just an itchy annoyance.

Most people with Zika never realize they have it. Only one in five develop symptoms, such as a rash, fever or pink eye. Most symptoms are mild, and many may never even see the doctor.

But for a pregnant woman, one bite can change her life.

That’s where you and I come

As a medical reporter who has learned more than she ever wanted to know about Zika, I’ve been on the alert for months.

This spring, I tossed out plastic containers that had collected in dark, hidden areas under my deck. I check the yard every few days to make sure rainwater hasn’t pooled up anywhere.

One of my neighbors is expecting a baby, so I began to wonder if this was enough.

My morning walks were marred by the sight of all the trash on the side of the road.

Although I live in a beautiful community, trash suddenly seemed to be everywhere. Coffee cups with plastic lids. Empty bags of potato chips. Candy wrappers. Any one of these items, I realized, could breed the mosquitoes that transmit Zika or West Nile, which killed 119 people last year.

My family and I organized a neighborhood cleanup. We put on latex gloves, grabbed garbage bags and collected the litter.

These aren’t exciting jobs.

Picking up a soggy grocery bag isn’t nearly as much fun as throwing a party, cutting a cake or blowing up balloons.

But it could save a baby’s future.

The IAAF said in a statement to USA TODAY Sports that it did not comment on individual athletes. South African track officials did not respond to attempts for comment.

“The reality of sports is someone will always have an advantage. ...

We need to have a rule that applies to everybody.”

Maria José Martínez-Patiño, world famous intersex athlete

CHASING A WORLD RECORD

Semenya won the 800 in the 2009 world championships when she was 18. Her time of 1 minute, 55.45 seconds was among the fastest in history. Competitors raised questions. One called her a man. Word leaked that she had elevated levels of testosterone.

The IAAF’s and IOC’s vague policies on gender verification at the time considered testosterone levels, though that was only part

of it. After Semenya’s case, the IAAF developed a rule that specified female athletes could not compete with functional testosterone levels above 10 nanomoles per liter, an upper limit determined to be three times higher than 99% of the women who had competed in recent world championships.

The IOC adopted the IAAF rule in time for the London Games, where Semenya won silver in the 800. Semenya was performing at an elite level but well shy of the promise of her astonishing performances in 2009.

Harper says, short of surgery, that medication — typically Spironolactone and external estrogen — is the most likely way to reduce naturally high testosterone levels.

Last year, Semenya failed to advance past the semifinals in the 800 in the world championships.

This year Semenya is improving markedly. She won the 400-, 800and 1,500-meter runs — all on the same day — in the South African championships.

That’s why Harper thinks Semenya is now competing with elevated levels of testosterone, calling her “untouchable” and suggesting her 200 splits and lordly demeanor on the track make her a near-certain bet to win the Olympic 800, with a chance to break the world record of 1:53.28 set in 1983 by Jarmila Kratochvilova of what was then Czechoslovakia. (Allegations of doping against Kratochvilova were never proved.)

Eric Vilain, human genetics professor and chief of medical genetics at UCLA, says biological testing can differentiate between natural testosterone produced by an intersex athlete and injected testosterone from doping.

“It was clear the IOC was shocked by the ruling of the CAS,” says Vilain, who attended an

If intersex athletes produce testosterone naturally, how is that different from other genetic advantages in sports — height in basketball, for instance, or long arms in swimming?

“We allow certain amounts of advantage” in sports, Harper says, “but not overwhelming advantage. ... We don’t let 200-pound boxers get in the ring with 100pound boxers. At some point, advantages become too great, and we need two categories.”

That’s why sports are divided into men’s and women’s.

“The reason why women can’t excel against men is a testosterone-based advantage,” says Harper, who identifies as a transgender woman. “The essence of dividing sport is largely based on the testosterone advantage. Using a testosterone-based divide (for women’s sports) is the best that we can do. It’s a compromise of trying to protect female athletes and also giving intersex and transgender athletes the chance to compete. There’s no perfect solution.”

Transgender athletes who transition from male to female are eligible to compete in the Rio Games without gender reassignment surgery. But they are required to maintain certain testosterone levels; intersex athletes have no such restrictions.

UCLA’s Vilain sees that as an unfair contradiction. “I’d fully expect a transgender athlete to challenge the rule,” he says.

‘A GOOD MISTAKE’

Martínez-Patiño’s gender test came in the 1985 World University Games. Three decades later, sports officials find themselves struggling to define gender and detect advantage. Martínez-Patiño says her experiences as an athlete, trainer,scientist and professor give her a unique perspective.

“I had everything taken from me, but now I have regained everything and more,” she says. “I see this through the passage of time, as someone who can see both sides — both as a scientist and someone who was affected by (gender testing).”

Martínez-Patiño expects an astonishing performance from Semenya in Rio — and controversy to match it. She sees a silver lining in all this. Instead of trial by error Martínez-Patiño sees Rio as trial by fire.

She expects these Games to provide a road map on how to determine rules and regulations on hyperandrogenism. “We get to see what happens when the rules are suspended. Human beings learn from good and bad mistakes,” Martínez-Patiño says.

“This is a good mistake.”

Gold Star families ‘represent the best of our country,’ Obama says As TrumpKhan flap flares, president makes a point of noting sacrifice of service members and their kin

“They serve as a powerful reminder of the true strength of America.

We have to do everything we can for those families and honor them and be humbled by them.”

President Obama

Gregory Korte @gregorykorte USA TODAY

President Obama lauded the families of American service members killed in action Monday, telling a veterans group that those families “have made a sacrifice that most of us can’t even begin to imagine.”

Without specifically mentioning the dispute between Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and the Khan family, Obama went out of his way to talk about Gold Star families in a previously scheduled speech to the Disabled American Veterans in Atlanta.

“Let me say this. No one — no one — has given more for our freedom and our security than our Gold Star families. Michelle and I have spent countless hours with them. We have grieved with them,” he said.

“They continue to inspire us every day, every moment,” he said. “They serve as a powerful reminder of the true strength of America. We have to do everything we can for those families and honor them and be humbled by them.”

Obama’s comments come after five days of headlines following a passionate denunciation of Trump by Khizr Khan, the father of Capt. Humayun Khan, who died in 2004 in Iraq while trying to save his unit from a suicide bomber.

Khan said Trump “smears the character of Muslims” and has “sacrificed nothing” to defend the United States. Trump responded by attacking Khan’s wife, suggesting that she was not allowed to speak at the Democratic convention because she is a Muslim woman.

Obama said he specifically requested that he be introduced at the Democratic National Convention by a Gold Star mother — Sharon Belkofer of Ohio, whose son was killed in Afghanistan in 2020.

Poll: Clinton pulls ahead of Trump after convention Eliza Collins USA TODAY

Hillary Clinton has taken the lead in the presidential race following last week's Democratic convention, according to a CBS News poll out Monday.

The former secretary of State has the support of 46% of registered voters, compared with 39% for Trump. The new numbers break a tie the two candidates were in (42%-42%) last week after the Republican convention.

Clinton got a 4-point bump following her party’s Philadelphia convention, according to the CBS News survey. Trump got an initial 2-point bounce after the Republican convention, but he has since dropped.

ANDREW HARNIK, AP

Hillary Clinton appears on stage at a rally in Columbus, Ohio.

Clinton’s post-convention bounce is similar to Obama’s in 2008 and 2012. In 2008, he went from 45% to 48% postconvention, and in 2012 he went from 46% to 51% postconvention, according to CBS News' polling.

The poll was conducted July 29-31 of 1,131 registered voters.

The margin of error is plus or minus 3 percentage points.

“I requested Sharon to introduce me, because I understood that our Gold Star families have made a sacrifice that most of us can’t even begin to imagine. They represent the best of our country,” he said.

Obama’s comments came in a speech defending his administration’s handling of veterans issues.

He urged Congress to fully fund the VA, promised to reduce wait times and criticized proposals to partially privatize veterans health care. And he said his administration has cut veterans homelessness almost in half.

But in doing so, Obama also tacitly confronted other Trump talking points in his speech, saying he was “tired of people trashtalking our troops.”

“In the face of Russian aggression, we’re not going to turn our back to our allies in Europe,” he said, a day after Trump suggested he would recognize the Russian occupation of Crimea, which the United States considers to be part of Ukraine. “We’re going to stay united in NATO, which is the world’s strongest alliance.”

President Obama addresses the 95th National Convention of Disabled American Veterans in Atlanta on Monday.

TURKEY PROTESTS BARRING OF ERDOGAN ADDRESS

A diplomatic spat between Ankara and Berlin escalated Monday: Turkey’s Foreign Ministry summoned a German diplomat in protest of a court decision that prevented President Recep Tayyip Erdogan from addressing thousands of his supporters via video link at a weekend demonstration in Germany.

Turkey summoned the German Embassy’s charge d’affaires — the ambassador’s deputy — to the ministry to discuss the issue.

Organizers of Sunday’s rally in the German city of Cologne to denounce the July 15 failed coup in Turkey wanted Erdogan to speak to the crowd from a video screen.

Just hours before the demonstration started, Germany’s highest court upheld a regional court ruling that banned all live broadcasts at the rally apart from events happening on the main stage.

A Russian helicopter delivering humanitarian goods to Aleppo was downed over Syria on Monday, killing all five people aboard.

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov told journalists in Moscow

that “from what we know from information provided by the Defense Ministry, all those who were on the helicopter died.”

The Mi-8 helicopter was shot down as it was returning to a base on Syria’s coast. There was no immediate claim of responsibility.

— Kim Hjelmgaard COST OF A ONE-PERSON ELECTION? ABOUT $500,000

An election to replace the Democratic challenger for former speaker John Boehner’s seat could cost taxpayers as much as $500,000.

And there’s only one man running: Toledo Democrat Steve Fought, a former staffer of Rep. Marcy Kaptur and Sen. Sherrod Brown.

Fought filed to run after Corey Foister dropped out of the race against incumbent Rep. Warren Davidson, a Republican, last week. State law requires an election to select his replacement even if only one candidate has filed. So Democrats in Darke, Miami, Clark, Preble and Butler counties and a part of Mercer County will vote on Sept. 13.

Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted called the one-candidate election a waste of time and money. How much money? About $505,796.15.

Though it didn’t meet its deadline of 2015, the Obama administration announced Monday it is almost halfway to its goal of ending veteran homelessness.

Cabinet officials celebrated how far they have come in finding homes for veterans.

“The effort has been an unqualified success over the last few years,” said Julian Castro, secretary of Housing and Urban Development, which has worked with the Department of Veterans Affairs on the project.

White House spokesman Eric Schultz said that when President Obama “set that goal, he knew it was ambitious, and he knew it was a daunting task.” He said Obama is proud of the progress.

At the Disabled American Veterans convention in Atlanta, Obama did not mention the missed goal but described veteran homelessness as a “tragedy, travesty” and said his administration “will not stop” until all veterans have homes.

The administration said veteran homelessness has been cut 47% since 2010. On any given night, 40,000 veterans are homeless, including 13,000 who live on the streets, according to figures released Monday based on estimates and head counts of homeless veterans across the country.

Those living on the street have fallen 56% since 2010, HUD and the VA say.

Rep. Jeff Miller, R-Fla., chairman of the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, said the limited results do not match the increasing cost of the homeless program, which has reached $1.5 billion annually. “The fact that VA increases in spending on homeless initiatives are far outpacing reductions in veteran homelessness

BENJAMIN ZACK, AP

Eugene Morris of Ogden, Utah, says that he struggled with drug addiction and homelessness until going through rehab six years ago and finding assistance with the Ogden Homeless Veterans Fellowship.

“The fact that VA increases in spending ... are far outpacing reductions in veteran homelessness calls into question the efficacy of VA’s efforts.”

Rep. Jeff Miller, R-Fla.

calls into question the efficacy of VA’s efforts,” Miller said.

Eric Shinseki, who was named secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs when Obama took office, said in 2009 that he and the president were “personally committed to ending homelessness among veterans within the next five years.” Shinseki resigned in 2014 amid a VA scandal over the timely delivery of health care to veterans.

His replacement, Robert Mc-

Donald, said Monday that a key reason for falling short of the goal was because of problems in Los Angeles, which he said has the largest veteran homeless population in the country. California has more than 9,600 homeless veterans. Numbers released Monday show the VA has had some of its greatest progress in Los Angeles, reducing veteran homelessness by 30% over the past year.

“I don’t know when we’ll get to zero,” McDonald said. “Zero continues to be the goal.”

He said legislation before Congress would allow for construction of shelters on the VA’s 390-acre campus in Los Angeles.

Castro described the success at cutting veteran homelessness nearly in half as “amazing and ... actually an example of how Washington should work.”

“Whether it ends up having been at the end of 2015 or a couple years after that, it is going to be a glorious day when we can celebrate the end, the effective end, of veteran homelessness,” Castro said.

HACKER DRONES, CAR RANSOMWARE ON WAY, EXPERTS SAY JEFF MELROSE

Fences used to keep people out, but now drones — like this one flying over a water treatment plant in Georgia — can fly over them.

As computer security community gathers in Vegas, cutting-edge researchers see more danger lurking Elizabeth Weise @eweise USA TODAY

We know emails can get hacked. But what about solar panels?

The computer security industry’s annual pilgrimage to Las Vegas this week for a trio of conferences will hash out the myriad, creepy ways criminals can breach our increasingly connected world.

Among this year’s talks: the possibility drones perched high up on buildings could link into unsecured networks; the ease a bored teenager could take over an Airbnb rental’s Wi-Fi; ransomware used to hijack connected cars; and how a roof-top solar array could destabilize an entire power grid.

Black Hat is the largest of the three gatherings, counting more than 11,000 in attendance last year, and the most prestigious.

DefCon is more for hackers.

“The bad guys communicate really, really well. They have an entire ecosystem for sharing and monetizing techniques. Our corporate security community doesn’t have those tools, but we have Black Hat and DefCon and BSides,” said Gunter Ollmann, chief security officer at Vectra Networks, a security firm based in San Jose.

These are the hacking scenarios that have cybersleuths talking.

In the “so easy, and yet so dangerous” category comes a talk Thursday by security intelligence researcher Jeremy Galloway, whose day job is with security

deric Bret-Mounet.

After installing solar panels on his home near San Francisco, he noted the array was connected to the cloud. It took him a single weekend to hack into his own system. Once there, he realized that had he been malicious, he could have overridden the safety limits on the system, causing it to overheat and then be knocked offline. He could also have remotely set off the solar array’s emergency shutdown protocol.

He also realized he could have potentially compromised devices in thousands of homes. Not only that, but “I could have installed spying software that would have had visibility into their home networks, seeing their emails and everything they did online,” he said.

Thieves long ago learned how to break into cars through electronic keys. Cars connected to the Internet raises the stakes. firm Atlassian in Austin.

When on a snowboarding trip in Colorado with some friends recently, he realized their Airbnb rental came equipped with Wi-Fi — and that the Wi-Fi router was sitting out in plain sight.

All he had to do to get into the server was pick up the router, unbend a paperclip and use it to reset the router. At that point he could have put a snooping program in place that could watch the Wi-Fi network long after he had checked out, sending updates that could include other guests’ login credentials and passwords to multiple networks.

The danger is not simply to Airbnb rentals but any homebased rental where hosts are not tech or security savvy. He recommends property owners who have Wi-Fi in their rental space physically lock up the device in a closet or other secure area.

JACKWARE

With connected cars coming up fast in the rearview mirror, researchers at ESET, a security company, see ransomware aimed at cars as a likely future exploit.

The nightmarish scenario is that you get into your self-driving car, the doors lock and a message pops up on the screen saying, “Pay us ransom or we won’t let you out.” Or perhaps even threatens to take you somewhere you don’t want to go.

“It’s not inevitable, but it’s up to the people who make cars to prevent it from becoming a reality,” said Stephen Cobb, a senior researcher for the firm based in San Diego.

SOLAR

Installing solar panels can open homeowners up to hackers, according to a presentation set for Friday by security researcher Fre-

To Jeff Melrose, a strategist for cybersecurity at engineering services supplier Yokogawa U.S., drones are a terrifying threat to industrial installations, from power and chemical plants to factories. “In the old days, a fence kept people out of your plant.

Now a drone can just fly right over it,” he said.

While a helicopter hovering outside a building for 20 minutes would never go unnoticed, a drone can almost silently creep in, perch and watch for days. It can find its way to a hidden corner of a building and then serve as a connection to any open Bluetooth or Wi-Fi networks or even a wireless mouse or keyboard.

Drones are also close to riskfree to the attacker. “You can put up an untraceable drone, and if it gets caught, it gets caught,” said David Latimer, a security analyst at Bishop Fox, a security consulting firm in Tempe, Ariz.

The duo see a tidal wave of attacks coming. “This Christmas, almost every hacker wants a drone,” said Latimer.

Oil industry jittery again as price of crude falls Dips below $40 a barrel in trading Monday; summer recovery may have been false hope Nathan Bomey @NathanBomey USA TODAY

U.S. oil prices slipped below $40 per barrel in trading Monday, touching levels not seen in more than three months and underscoring fears that the commodity’s midyear rebound was not sustainable.

With global oil inventories remaining at elevated levels, West Texas Intermediate crude — the U.S. benchmark — fell below $40 in afternoon trading amid signs of increasing U.S. production and reduced geopolitical disruption.

The commodity settled at

$40.06, down 3.7% for the day. It hasn’t closed below $40 since April 18, when it ended the day at $39.78.

Crude oil plummeted below $30 per barrel for about a week in February, tipping many energy companies into bankruptcy and triggering thousands of layoffs before a sharp recovery sent prices above $50 per barrel in May. But the recovery might have represented false hope for beleaguered exploration-and-production companies.

“When oil topped $50 this year, everyone thought that’s the ‘go’ signal, and we’re just going to start adding rigs back and taking

crude oil right now, creating the buildup in inventories that fuels concerns about a prolonged stretch of lower prices.

Eventually, oil producers will

need to turn off the spigot to allow oil to rise.

“Supply is what got us into this problem, and supply is probably going to have to get us out,” Glickman said.

The latest decline reflects a few key factors, analysts say: uStubbornly high U.S. oil inventories, which rose by 1.7 million barrels in the week ended July 22, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s Wednesday report. uSigns of an uptick in Libya and Nigeria, where geopolitical disruptions had throttled production. However, that could be threatened by new U.S. airstrikes against Islamic State forces. uIncreased output in Canada following the devastating fire that slashed oil-sands production earlier this year.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

The market’s impressive 19% gain from its February bottom is about to get its ultimate test: The calendar.

Stocks are entering the part of the year that infamously proves to be one of the most difficult. August and September have been the two worst months of the year in terms of stock market performance since World War II, says Sam Stovall, U.S. equity strategist at S&P Global Market Intelligence.

If that’s not disappointing enough, a third of the monthly declines of 5% or more occurred in August and September.

month drops also happened during these two months. Stocks suffered a 14.6% decline in August 1998, which was the secondworst showing for a month after October, Stovall says. There are many possible explanations for why these months are so poor, ranging from investors going on vacations to scrutiny of secondhalf earnings forecasts, a falloff in capital inflows and portfolio positioning by mutual funds at the end of their fiscal year.

Investors should know stocks struggle in August and September, and be mentally prepared for volatility, but that doesn’t mean they should bail.

All approaches prove valid but can be tricky Q: Which P-E ratio is best?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: If you hear another investor or analyst talking about the market’s P-E, ask yourself this question. Which P-E? The P-E, or price-to-earnings ratio, shows how much investors are paying for a claim to companies’ earnings. A high P-E means investors are paying up for earnings, and the market might be expensive. If the P-E is low, investors aren’t paying a high premium and stocks might be cheap. But here’s the problem, P-Es can be calculated in several ways.

The can greatly change the results. Most investors agree on the numerator of the formula, that’s the P or price or value of the Standard & Poor’s 500.

Things get trickier with the denominator, or earnings. You can use earnings companies are expected to report over the next 12 months. That’s what is called the forward P-E. But some might correctly point out forward P-Es are based on estimates, which could prove wrong.

The alternative is to use the “trailing P-E” based on earnings the past 12 months. Another wrinkle is whether to use earnings that take out one-time items for an “operating” P-E or leave them in for “as reported” valuations.

All these approaches are valid. Just be sure you know which method is being used and always use the same one when comparing valuations.

Happy marriage for Musk: Tesla, SolarCity put a ring on it Nathan Bomey @NathanBomey USA TODAY

Tesla Motors said Monday that it had reached a deal to acquire SolarCity, putting the companies one step closer to a marriage that has drawn scrutiny from Wall Street but which Tesla CEO and SolarCity Chairman Elon Musk has vigorously defended.

Tesla said the stock acquisition is worth $2.6 billion, including the assumption of debt, valuing SolarCity shares at $25.37, or 5% lower than Friday’s close.

TESLA MOTORS

Elon Musk did not cast a ballot.

SolarCity will get 45 days to seek an alternative suitor in a provision known as a “go-shop” period.

Musk argued that the deal would accelerate Tesla’s transi-

tion from electric-vehicle automaker into a renewable-energy products company. With solarpanel installer SolarCity on board, Tesla could pair solar panels with its new energy storage products.

“This is really all part of solving the sustainable energy problem,” Musk said on a conference call.

For an executive who long has viewed Tesla’s trajectory through an ambitious lens aimed at combating climate change by ushering in a renewable energy world, the SolarCity deal is a key part of the puzzle.

“This is an action now which is

anticipating several moves ahead,” Musk said.

Musk has thrown the full force of his persuasive personality behind the acquisition. But Tesla said the independent board members of both companies voted to authorize the deal, meaning Musk did not cast a ballot.

A majority of each company’s independent shareholders must also vote to approve the acquisition, which Tesla expects to close in the fourth quarter.

Musk said Monday that if SolarCity finds another buyer at a higher price, “I guess the independent board members would

be compelled to accept that.”

Tesla shares fell 2% to close at $231.01, and SolarCity shares slumped 7.4% to close at $24.72.

Musk distanced himself from the price of the deal, which has put him in the spotlight because of his close involvement in both companies.

“I was fully recused from the matter, so I know about as much as you do about how this price was obtained,” he told an analyst on the call.

Tesla said it expects to shed $150 million in costs in the first full year following the deal’s completion.

IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?

Gary Levin and Robert Bianco USA TODAY

TBS and TNT are getting a “fresh coat of paint” with upgraded comedies and dramas, respectively.

That’s how programming chief Kevin Reilly, who earlier ran NBC and Fox, described the shift Sunday at the Television Critics Association press tour.

On their way out are meatand-potatoes procedural dramas (Rizzoli & Isles) and low-budget sitcoms that, while sometimes popular, mimic what the broadcast networks are offering. In their place are more distinctive, serialized series with a “complex level of storytelling,” Reilly said — shows such as TNT’s Animal Kingdom, starring Ellen Barkin as the matriarch of a crime family, and TBS’s buzzworthy Full Frontal With Samantha Bee, a cultural successor to Jon Stewart’s The Daily Show, her former employer.

TNT’s Good Behavior (Nov. 15) stars Downton Abbey’s Michelle Dockery as a con artist. The Race Card, a new unscripted series, features NBA announcer Charles Barkley as he embarks on a “personal journey” to understand a divided America. The Last Ship has been renewed for a fourth season. And among upcoming series is a big-budget adaptation of Caleb Carr’s historical novel The Alienist.

TBS, which has embraced the wacky with The Detour, starring BEVERLY HILLS

Bee’s husband, Jason Jones, Wrecked (essentially Lost as a half-hour comedy) and Angie Tribeca, Rashida Jones’ slapstick cop comedy, has two more shows on tap for fall: People of Earth (Oct. 31), an ensemble alien comedy starring another Daily Show alum, Wyatt Cenac, and Search Party, about four self-absorbed Millennials who band together in search of a missing college acquaintance. (The series will be launched Nov. 21 with a bingefriendly first-season marathon, echoing TBS’s strategy for Angie.)

And Sunday, it announced plans for new comedies: The Guest Book, in which each episode focuses on different renters of a vacation home, from writer/producer Greg Garcia (My Name is Earl, Raising Hope), and Tarantula, an animated series focusing on a tattoo artist at a residential hotel prone to “absurd but introspective monologues.”

New role for Dockery: It’s unlikely anyone watching TNT’s Behavior is going to confuse Letty with Downton’s Lady Mary.

There’s a moment in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child — the new play resurrecting Harry and friends onstage in London and published as a script-book — when Harry and his old rival Draco Malfoy are discussing their relationships with their respective sons.

“We’ve been so busy trying to rewrite our own pasts, we’ve blighted their present,” a 40-yearold Harry Potter says gravely.

It’s a line Harry might have been saying to his creator, J.K. Rowling, who crafted Cursed Child with writer Jack Thorne and director John Tiffany. The author has encountered her share of criticism for being stuck in the past, continually tweaking and expanding the Potter universe she created to the point where some fans and critics would simply like Rowling to move on.

Cursed Child is, in many ways, a direct response to that criticism, taking readers back to the great moments of the series while

also spinning the Potterverse forward. In critiquing and potentially changing Harry’s past, the play justifies its portrayal of his future.

And while reading the script (eeeE out of four) is an incomplete experience, it may capture just enough of the old Potter magic to please even the most skeptical fans.

The script follows Albus Severus Potter and Scorpius Malfoy,

two young wizards trying to find their place in Hogwarts and the world the way their fathers, Harry and Draco, did before them. A new villain, the resurrection of the time-turner device and several poor choices take the boys back to Harry’s past. Dead characters return, if only temporarily. Past decisions are scrutinized. Established relationships are tested.

But Cursed Child is less about actually rewriting the past and more about how that past affects the future. It examines the bond of father and son, and what makes that bond more than perfunctory. What kind of expectations did Harry saddle poor Albus Severus Potter with by giving him those three names?

As a script only, it takes a little too long for Cursed Child to draw the reader in. The stage directions, though cheeky and fun at points, are vague, leaving much to be desired in descriptions of setting and action scenes. Without actors behind them, unestablished characters feel flat and underdeveloped. The familiar pace of the seven Potter novels is gone, replaced with a narrative that

spans years and then lingers on a few days. At 356 pages, it is a considerably faster read than many of the later Potter tomes.

Parts of the story, especially to a Potter devotee, may seem so perfect that they read like fan fiction: alternate timelines that satisfy the curiosities of hungry fans, relationships too much like established “ships,” and twists too outlandish to feel real. But Harry Potter is so ubiquitous in our culture, so universal in its acclaim, that any new detail or twist was conceivably already thought of.

Rowling manages, however, to include this apparent fan-service without making it cheap or insincere. Just like you, the play argues, she wonders what would have happened if Voldemort had won or if one character survived or another died.

Very quickly, even while just reading the script of Cursed Child, you remember that Rowling loves these stories and characters as much as you do, and it becomes easier and more enjoyable to read the script. After all, love, as Voldemort never understood, is the strongest magic of all.

HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

Take a stand against the

SILENT KILLER Usually no symptoms are present, so test is crucial

By Aynsley Anderson Sosinski Lawrence Memorial Hospital

T

he Centers for Disease Control estimates that in the United States about a third of adults have high blood pressure, also known as hypertension.

Many are unaware that they have it.

Still another third may have pre-hypertension, which means their blood pressure is higher than normal but not quite high enough to be considered hypertension. If their blood pressure is left uncontrolled, many of those with pre-hypertension will eventually develop hypertension.

Although there is no cure for hypertension, it can usually be managed by leading a healthy lifestyle and by taking prescription medications. Lawrence Memorial Hospital is offering a “Lifestyle Changes to Help Prevent and Assist in Managing Hypertension” program to share information with the community.

There will be two sessions: 6 to 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 9, at the LMH main campus or 9:30 to 11 a.m.

Friday, Aug. 19, at the LMH Performance and Wellness Center at the Sports Pavilion Lawrence.

Advance registration is required for the program at the Performance and Wellness Center because of space limitations. There is a $5 fee for the program. Enroll at www.lmh.org/events or call LMH Connect Care at 505-5800.

Blood pressure is the force of blood against the artery walls as it circulates through the body. The top number of a blood pressure reading, known as systolic pressure, is the pressure measurement when the heart is beating and the lower number, known as diastolic pressure, is the pressure when the heart is resting.

The American Heart Association (AHA) notes that a normal blood pressure is less than 120/80. A systolic reading between 120 to 139 or a diastolic reading between 80 and 89 may indicate pre-hypertension.

A systolic reading of 140 or greater and/or a diastolic reading of 90 or higher may indicate hypertension.

Talk with your health care provider about what your target blood pressure numbers should be for your age and medical history.

> PRESSURE, 2C

5 healthy tips 1. Eat a healthy diet. The DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet is one that is rich in vegetables, fruits, low-fat dairy, lean protein and whole grains.

Limiting saturated fats such as in meats or high fat dairy can also help. Focus on decreasing the sodium and added sugars in your diet. Most processed foods such as canned or packaged convenience food products are high in added sodium or sugar. The AHA recommends that those who have hypertension aim to keep their daily sodium intake to less than 1,500 mg.

Many fruits and vegetables contain potassium, which is thought to be helpful in lessening the harmful effects of too much salt.

ADMINISTRATOR. GRANDFATHER. RIDES A BIKE. LEAD WITH CAUTION.

2. Be physically active.

Try to get a minimum of 150 minutes a week (more is better) of physical activity, such as walking, cycling, swimming or yoga.

3. Stop smoking and using tobacco products.

Smoking can damage the walls of the arteries, potentially leading to a heart attack or stroke. Know that secondhand smoke exposure can also do the same.

4. Work on losing weight. Even losing a small amount of weight — 5 to 10 percent of your total body weight — can significantly improve blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol readings.

5. Limit alcohol intake.

Drinking too much alcohol can raise blood pressure.

Women should have no more than one drink a day and men no more than two.

For more information and additional suggestions to prevent or manage high blood pressure, go to heart. org or nhlbi.nih.gov.

Flour recall prompts new warning: Resist eating dough or batter Associated Press

The most basic of baking ingredients, flour, is at the center of a complicated question: How did it become contaminated with bacteria normally found in animal feces?

The E. coli-tainted flour from General Mills has sickened 46 people in 21 states and prompted about 45 million pounds of it to be recalled. And the Food and Drug Administration is cautioning raw cookie dough and cake batter aficionados not to indulge.

Here’s what federal officials know:

How foul is the flour?

FDA testing determined that raw dough eaten or handled by people who became ill was made using flour was produced between November 2015 and February 2016 at the General Mills facility in Kansas City, Mo. Officials found two different strains of E. coli bacteria that produce a toxin that can make people sick. In the past several years, the CDC has investigated several multi-state outbreaks of these E. coli strains linked to sources such as sprouts, but

How did the E. coli get into the flour supply?

The CDC and FDA don’t know, though are investigating.

The bacteria lives in animal intestines and is most commonly spread through contamination from feces. Flour is refined from wheat grown in open fields and it is considered a raw agricultural product with no treatment process designed to kill contaminants like bacteria before it reaches consumers. As a result, there’s potential for contamination between the field and the packaging, CDC epidemiologist Dr. Karen Neil said.

What types of illnesses are reported and where?

These strains of E. coli bacteria can cause diarrhea and abdominal cramps. Most people get better within a week, but some become seriously ill and develop potentially fatal kidney failure.

Thirteen people have been hospitalized and one has kidney failure, the CDC said.

Minnesota, where General Mills is based, has had the most illnesses with five. Colorado, Illinois and Michigan each reported four.

Which products are affected?

The recall is a small fraction of the 2.5 billion pounds of flour General Mills produces in a year.

Batches of unbleached, all-purpose, and self-rising flour varieties from General Mills, Gold Medal, Wondra and Signature Kitchens flour brands are included. A few cake mixes, a biscuit mix and a pancake mix containing General Mills flour also were recalled. All recalled products can be found at generalmills.com.

What does General Mills say?

In an emailed response to The Associated Press, the company said its officials do not believe the Kansas City plant is the source of the bacteria but they “have elevated cleaning protocols” out of caution.

“Only a small sub-set of flour produced at the Kansas City plant has been traced back to individuals who have become ill. To date, E. coli has not been found in testing of the manufacturing facility,” the company said.

Is this the first time flour has been the source of food-borne illness?

Raw flour, yes.

In 2009, an E. coli outbreak that sickened 72 people in 30 states was traced to prepackaged Nestle Toll House cookie dough that consumers reported eating raw. Neil said the likely culprit was the flour in the dough.

Nestle now uses heat-treated flour, and commercial cookie dough used in ice cream and other ready-to-eat products also is treated.

General Mills said it can’t heat-treat flour because it would affect the rising properties and other baking performance.

But I love cookie dough; what now?

Throw away any product included in the recall, including flour stored in containers other than the original packaging, Neil said.

Stop making homemade playdough for children or tasting cake or cookie batter before cooking.

Cooks at home and in restaurants and bakeries should wash hands, work surfaces and utensils thoroughly after working with raw dough products containing flour. Keep raw foods away from flour to prevent cross-contamination.

Over time, if the blood flow force is high enough, damage to artery walls may occur. Damage to the heart coronary arteries can lead to heart attack, heart failure, aortic dissection and atherosclerosis (excess plaque deposits that harden and block the arteries). Hypertension can also damage the arteries to the brain, potentially causing a stroke or memory loss.

In addition, uncontrolled high blood pressure can result in damage to the kidneys, lungs and eyes, as well as lead to erectile dysfunction and peripheral artery disease.

Often known as the “silent killer,” high blood pressure usually does not cause any symptoms. The only way to know you have it is to have your blood pressure measured.

One elevated blood pressure reading does not necessarily mean that you have hypertension, but it does mean that you need to monitor your blood pressure more frequently and alert your health care provider.

There are several risk factors for hypertension.

Some such as advancing age, race, gender and a family history of hypertension are ones that you cannot alter. Other risk factors including being overweight, smoking, being physically inactive, eating an unhealthy diet or having too high a blood sugar or cholesterol levels are risk factors that you can work at changing.

It is important to follow your health care provider’s recommendations regarding treatment. Always tell your doctor and pharmacist if you are taking any over-the-counter medications or supplements, as some of these can affect blood pressure. If you have been prescribed medication to control your blood pressure, always take as recommended.

Never quit taking any prescribed blood pressure medication without consulting your health care provider first.

‘Stuck’ salesman should look into night school Dear Annie: I’ve been working at the same car dealership for five years, since I graduated high school. When I started, it was just a job. I thought I would do this and then figure out what I really want to do. Then I started to make some money, and I got decent at selling. A week turned into a month, which turned into a year, and here I am at 23.

I got married last year, and my wife and I now have a baby girl. She is the love of my life. But part of me regrets that I never went to college before starting a family.

I don’t want to be a car salesman my entire life.

I’d really like to pursue a degree and study business. I am only 23 and know that I have a long way to go, but the past five years have flown by so quickly, and I want to make sure that I am not on a path I will regret.

I love my daughter and her mother. I don’t hate my job, but I can’t imagine doing this for the rest of my life. What should I do? — Stuck Salesman Dear Stuck: Car salesmen get a bad rap, but really, it’s not an easy job. They have to be persistent, quick-thinking and good with people.

If you have the finesse to be a good car salesman, you can probably do pretty much anything you set your mind to.

‘Boys’ looks at sports during Depression “American Experience” (8 p.m., PBS, TV-PG check local listings) dusts off the “Seabiscuit” recipe with “The Boys of ‘36,” airing tonight. The formula is simple: Find a sporting story from the Great Depression, lay on the details and infuse them with meaning and metaphor.

“Boys” follows the remarkable story of the University of Washington crew team of the first half of the 1930s. Several of the rowers on their heavyweight eight team suffered deprivation during the Depression.

One was literally homeless through high school, and many joined the college team simply because it guaranteed them three square meals.

Their working- and nonworking-class status stood in stark contrast to their rivals from elite East Coast schools. But outrowing shells from Princeton and Cornell was kid stuff compared to their triumph at the 1936 Olympics, designed to be a showcase for Hitler’s master race.

Among the remarkable details to emerge from this history is the fact that intercollegiate crew was a hugely popular sport in the 1930s. One regatta in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., attracted 75,000 spectators and coast-to-coast radio coverage. Personal digression: When I was on the crew team in Nutley, N.J., we were lucky to have our family or girlfriends show up for races. To be fair, it took real love and dedication to brave the stench of the Passaic River and its environs back then.

A revolving door of contrived, romantic distractions, “Bachelor in Paradise” (7 p.m., ABC, TV-14) returns for a third season on the same night that “Coupled” (7 p.m., Fox, TV-14) concludes its first.

This arrives only one night after ABC’s three-hour JoJoThon on “The Bachelorette.”

Several cable series also wrap up their seasons.

David Schwimmer made a powerful post-”Friends” impression by appearing in the acclaimed “The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story.” His appearance in the overheated “Feed the Beast” (9 p.m., AMC, TV-14) did not exactly continue that forward momentum.

Some cable series have been running so long, one forgets they are still on the air. Sig’s heart attack presents multiple crises as “Deadliest Catch” (8 p.m., Discovery, TV-PG) wraps up season 12.

These kids have the same genes. How can one be so into books and the other want nothing to do with them?

— Reading Rain-bro Dear Reading: You’re raising siblings, not clones. Of course they won’t have identical aptitudes.

Although there’s no definite ‘’right’’ age by which all kids should be reading, it usually happens around age 6. It sounds as if your daughter was a bit of a prodigy.

As long as your son is in the healthy range of his age group and is getting a hang of the pre-reading fundamentals, he should be fine.

Don’t give up on trying to get him excited about books, though.

Dallas point guard commits to KU

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Sunflower power

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Kansas basketball’s 2017 recruiting class is well positioned to land at least a couple of top-tier, elite prospects.

But it officially will be remembered as the class that began with four-star Dallas guard Marcus Garrett.

According to multiple reports, including a Tweet from CBS’ Jon Rothstein, the 6-foot-5, 180-pound point guard from Dallas’ Skyline High committed to the Jayhawks on Monday night, making him the first player in the class to orally commit to KU. Ranked 44th in the nation

by Rivals.com, Garrett is a modern-day guard who can both handle the point, play off of the ball and fit into multiple styles and positions.

His uncle and summer coach, Matthew Watts, told Eric Bossi, of Rivals.com, that KU’s strong pursuit and status as “a blue blood” were enough to inspire Garrett to end his recruitment early.

“Coach Self told us that he is going to use him in the three-guard rotations,” Watts told Bossi. “He always has three guards on the floor and he fits. The best thing about about Marcus is the way he defends and he can guard the one, the two and three. He will have an opportunity to come in and compete for a starting job as a freshman.”

At the recent Final Chapter showcase in Las Vegas, Garrett and Dallas-based Swaghouse got the chance to match up against another elite guard in the Class of 2017, Troy Brown of the Las Vegas Prospects. Although Garrett’s team was overmatched, Garrett more than held his own in the showdown with Brown, a fivestar, 6-6 guard whom KU also has been pursuing. According to Bossi, who was in attendance, Garrett flashed his all-around game on the big stage.

“He’s a legitimate point guard with tremendous size and strength to ward off defenders when he attacks the lane,” Bossi wrote. “He got to the rim pretty much whenever he wanted to, drew fouls and also mixed in some deep jumpers. But what stands out most is his high basketball IQ and feel for the game.”

This was not the first time Bossi had praised Garrett.

Jayhawks eager to operate in Beaty’s offense

By Benton Smith

“

he hoped and planned to be heavily involved in the offense — play-calling, tutorials with quarterbacks, anything he could do to make sure the Jayhawks reached their potential when they possessed the ball.

The reality of inheriting a program that went 1248 over the course of the previous five years, however, meant the new man in charge had plenty of

After laying what he deemed an appropriate organizational foundation for Kansas — albeit during

MLB teams swap 18 at deadline CHICAGO WHITE SOX

AP Baseball Writer

Jonathan Lucroy got a deal he liked, Carlos Beltran joined him in Texas and Jay Bruce and Rich Hill also moved Monday during an 18-swap frenzy at the trade deadline.

Matt Moore, Francisco Liriano and Joe Smith found new homes, too, as playoff contenders stocked up for the stretch.

“That’s what we play for.

Those are the moments we want to be in,” Moore said after NL West-leading San Francisco got the lefty from last-place Tampa Bay. “For someone to reach out and come get me, it’s a really good feeling.”

Monday was the busiest deadline day since at least 1995, eclipsing the 15 deals made on the final day in 2010 and 2015, according to Major League Baseball.

Teams had until 3 p.m. CDT to make trades without waivers. From now, no player can be dealt unless he goes unclaimed by everyone else.

The AL West-leading Rangers made two major moves.

After Lucroy used his limited no-trade clause to block a deal to Cleveland, the All-Star catcher was sent to Texas.

“Now, moving on to the @ Rangers let’s take this bad boy to the ‘ship! Really excited and can’t wait to get after it!” he posted on Twitter.

The 30-year-old Lucroy is batting .299 with 13 homers and 50 RBIs this season.

HALL OF FAMER LYNETTE WOODARD, pictured playing basketball at KU from 1977 to 1981, has been hired to be an assistant coach for the Winthrop women’s team.

Woodard returns to coaching ranks with Winthrop Columbia, S.C. — Hall of Famer Lynette Woodard wanted a new start in college coaching. Winthrop, with her old friend Kevin Cook, seemed like a perfect place.

Woodard took her first coaching position since she was interim coach for alma mater Kansas in 2003-04. She spent four seasons as a Jayhawks assistant along since Cook, now the Eagles’ fifth-year head coach.

“I am very excited to be here at Winthrop,” Woodard said. “It’s a new beginning and it gives me the opportunity to get reacquainted with coach Cook.”

And to get familiar with the game Woodard once dominated. Woodard played at Kansas from 1977-81 and helped USA Basketball forge the women’s powerhouse that’s expected to be on display once more at the Rio Olympics this month.

Woodard, a two-time Olympian, won gold at the Los Angeles Games in 1984. The next year, she became the first woman to play for the Harlem Globetrotters.

Woodard played professionally overseas (there were no U.S. women’s leagues) before coming back to the United States to work in business and become athletic director for the Kansas City, Kansas, school system. In 1997, she came out of retirement to play two seasons in the WNBA. Woodard joined college coaching at her alma mater in 1999 and was named interim head coach in 2003-04.

She most recently worked at Wichita State, administering two federally funded education programs helping underprivileged students.

Cook was overjoyed that Woodard, 56, signed on to help the Eagles.

“If there were a Mount Rushmore of women’s basketball players, Lynette would be on it,” Cook said.

LOS ANGELES ANGELS OF ANAHEIM

Expect ‘curated’ Opening Ceremony The Opening Ceremony of the Olympics is a sure-fire, NFL-esque ratings grabber, even though no actual sports events are held during it.

Still, NBC understandably wants to do everything it can Friday night to maximize both viewership and showmanship.

To that end, NBC again has opted not to broadcast the ceremony live either on television or online, this time starting it on a one-hour delay at 8 p.m.

Eastern time. (And on a fourhour delay in the West.)

The idea, NBC Sports Group chairman Mark Lazarus said, is to “curate” the show to better inform viewers about all the goings-on, as well as to avoid having viewers miss anything during commercial breaks.

Beginning at 8 p.m. also is more convenient for more people on a workday than a live 7 p.m. start, meaning more potential eyeballs.

Last week Bloomberg reported that NBC tried an even bolder Opening Ceremony maneuver, lobbying to push the United States toward the end of the “Parade of Nations” as a way to hold onto American viewers longer.

Traditionally, national teams enter the arena in alphabetical order, according to the host’s country’s language.

In Portuguese, “Estados Unidos” comes long before the English version, “United States.”

The episode was an echo of sorts to an NBC idea of 10 years ago, one that was more about marketing than ratings.

Before the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy, thenNBC Sports boss Dick Ebersol decided Torino — the name for the city that is used by Italians — sounded cooler, so voila, everyone at NBC called it Torino, then and in perpetuity.

Royals’ Duffy flirts with no-hitter St. Petersburg, Fla. (ap) — Danny Duffy couldn’t get the no-hitter, but he still came away with a team record.

The left-hander pitched eight innings of one-hit ball and had a franchiserecord 16 strikeouts to lead the Kansas City Royals to a 3-0 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday night.

Duffy (7-1) flirted with the Royals’ first no-hitter in nearly 25 years before giving up a line-drive double to Desmond Jennings leading off the Tampa Bay eighth.

“There’s been a number of occasions when Danny’s stepped on the mound and I said this might be the night,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “But when he got through the seventh I thought this MAY be the night.”

Bret Saberhagen pitched the Royals’ last no-hitter on Aug. 26, 1991, and Zack Greinke owned Kansas City’s strikeout record of 15 until Monday night.

“It’s an honor to have a game like those guys had,” Duffy said, “but I understand they had a lot more of those than I did.

So I’m really still trying to do as good as I did tonight down the road.”

Jennings came off the disabled list Monday after missing all of July with a strained hamstring.

“It was hittable, a good pitch to hit,” Jennings said of the fastball he hit into the left-field corner.

KANSAS CITY’S DANNY DUFFY DELIVERS AGAINST TAMPA BAY. Duffy allowed one hit in eight innings and struck out 16 in the Royals’ 3-0 victory over the Rays on Monday night in St. Petersburg, Fla. “It wasn’t looking too good for a little while.”

Kendrys Morales’ 18th home run, a towering shot over the center-field wall off Rays starter Chris Archer (5-15), got the Royals on the scoreboard in the seventh. They added two more runs on three hits in the eighth.

Kelvin Herrera pitched the ninth for his second save.

Duffy, a 27-year-old left-hander who spent the first six weeks of the season in the bullpen, walked one. He struck out seven in his first trip through the Rays’ lineup, and did not allow a baserunner until walking Lo-

gan Forsythe to lead off the fourth.

“My fastball was jumping out of my hand, my changeup felt really good and my changeup was there,” he said. “It was one of the few-andfar-between times that somebody has all of their pitches working the way they want.”

Archer gave up three runs on six hits in 7 1/3 innings, striking out six to raise his AL-leading total to 161. Tampa Bay snapped a four-game win streak.

“It’s good that we kept Rays at deadline the group together. EvThe last-place Rays erybody’s happy about traded LHP Matt Moore, that,” Yost said. “(Gen-

Elston gives Eudora something to cheer

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Before playing in the Shrine Bowl on Saturday, Grant Elston sat in the locker room and thought about representing his hometown in his final high school football game.

He certainly made the most of it.

With plenty of his former Eudora High teammates and coaches watching from the stands, Elston was dominant on defense, helping his East squad to a 48-27 victory at Emporia State University.

The 5-foot-8 free safety finished with nine tackles (six solo) and one pass breakup in the all-star game. In addition to his defense, he kicked two extra points and drilled two touchbacks on kickoffs.

Free State High assistant coach Max Cordova coached Elston in the secondary for the East team.

“Before the game, we were all talking about, ‘Wow, there’s only 68 kids in the state of Kansas who get to put on their high school helmet one more time,’” Elston said. “It kind of hit me hard before the game. I

was sitting there thinking about how I actually get to represent my community and play for all of my boys who helped me get to where I am now. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.”

Elston, a four-year starter at Eudora, made six tackles in the first half and held the West to only seven points in the second half.

As a standout quarterback and defensive back last season, he led the Cardinals to the Class 4A-I semifinals for the first time since 2012.

“It was probably one of the best weeks of my

generally prefer being the first or last school. Ideally, they are one and the same.

“This was the only school I took my visit to,” Armstrong said. “When I came here, I actually fell in love with the place so I decided not to go anywhere afterward. I liked the environment and the people I met. I met a lot of random, nice people and I felt like I fit in. Everything has fallen into place as I planned.”

Lest Kansas fans forget the name of the recruit who kept Missouri coaches waiting outside of his house and eventually told them no thank you, Armstrong stayed fresh on the brain by registering a sack, and looking very fast in doing so, on the first play from scrimmage of his college career. It came in the second quarter of KU’s season-opening, 41-38 loss to South Dakota State. He ranked third on the team with 3.5 sacks.

“It was the best feeling ever,” Armstrong said.

And it was only a beginning.

“He’s had an unbelievably good summer,” Jackson said. “He could have won this award probably five times this summer, at least. Like I told the team, we only had seven

the seventh and final Workout Warrior of the Week for the summer of 2016. Armstrong and teammates report for fall camp Thursday.

Armstrong looked back on the home visit with Bowen and former KU defensive line coach Calvin Thibodeaux, now in the same role at Oklahoma.

“My mom cooked some spaghetti and my little brother, (Kaleb Cain) 9 at the time, the moment it was done, he offered both coaches some spaghetti and they sat down and ate it, and I guess they loved it,” Armstrong said, smiling at the memory.

As the coaches and family chatted with full bellies, Armstrong’s phone rang. It was an assistant coach from Missouri.

“They told me they’re outside,” Armstrong recalled, “and I said, ‘Oh dear, I have some coaches already in here.’ He said, ‘All right, we’ll wait.’

Then coach Bowen and coach Thibodeaux stayed for 20 minutes longer and the Missouri coaches came in right after.’ It was kind of awkward and

I was never expecting that to happen.”

At the time, Armstrong didn’t appreciate the full magnitude of the scheduling conflict.

“I wasn’t aware of the rivalry at all,” Armstrong said. “I didn’t find out about it until I got here.

Two rivalry schools at my house at the same time.”

And only one of those schools received Armstrong’s signature on a national letter of intent.

He said no to scholarship offers from power-fiveconference schools Indiana, Michigan State, Missouri, Northwestern and Purdue, as well as hometown Houston.

life, not even going to lie,” said Elston, who will play free safety at Baker University.

“Some of the friends I made — we’re already trying to get a reunion together because we had so much fun. It was a great time.”

Elston, along with all of the other players, was in camp for about nine days to practice for the game.

Elston said it felt like a “head start” before he begins at Baker, and his coaches noticed he never backed down from a challenge, which included covering much taller receivers.

“He’s a great young man, first of all,” Cordova said of Elston. “It wasn’t much coaching I needed to do. He just wanted to do it. He was tough.

He was going against a 6-foot-3 kid from Mulvane … he did excellent. I was so proud of him.”

In addition to all of the game preparations, all of the players and coaches involved in the 43rd-annual Shrine Bowl made a trip to a local Shriners Hospital for Children.

“After that hospital visit, it’s hard to ever have a day from here on out where you feel sorry for yourself,” Elston said.

of these to hand out and the nice thing is several of the guys that have won it could have won it multiple times.”

Jackson said that Armstrong has “made some huge gains, huge, huge gains in the weight room, conditioning-wise, his body. He has committed himself to getting his body right, which is great, fantastic.”

Jackson said Armstrong’s current weight is perfect for this season.

After that, who knows?

“Usually what I do is we will gain weight until we start losing speed,” Jackson said. “Once we

start losing speed, that’s where we cap it. You don’t want to sacrifice all your speed to be big because then you’re big and slow.”

Armstrong said he is faster now than at any point in his life and the testing done by the strength and conditioning staff confirms that.

“Him getting faster is a direct correlation to No. 1, the speed work he’s doing and No. 2, he’s so much stronger than he was last year,” Jackson said. “It’s crazy how much stronger he is.”

Armstrong’s favorite NFL player is Von Miller,

“What some of those kids have gone through is just incredible to where they are now and their aspect on life. It’s something that I’ll never forget, that’s for sure. That probably hit me the hardest.”

It was the first time Cordova coached in the Shrine Bowl, and the hospital visit, the game and everything in between made an impact on him.

“As a coach, it was a great opportunity to just enjoy a great benefit for kids,” Cordova said. “For the players — for everybody — it was just a great opportunity. They did great things.”

Super Bowl MVP for the Denver Broncos. A passrushing outside linebacker, a possible long-term designation for Armstrong, the 6-foot-3 Miller weighed 246 pounds coming out of Texas A&M. He’s listed at 250 now.

“I’ve been watching him since three years ago and ever since I get deep into his game, and I want to become more like him and be able to do the things he does,” Armstrong said.

Asked to name a specific way he has tried to mimic Miller, Armstrong said, “I feel like when I’m rushing the tackle my dip and lean is kind of like his. Get low to the ground and just keep going.”

Armstrong won’t need to be the next Von Miller to achieve his goal of becoming a multi-year AllBig 12 performer.

“Unbelievably talented, super athletic,” Jackson said of Armstrong. “He just wants to be good.

It’s unusual for a guy that young to have that type of mentality already. When he came here, he had that mentality that he wanted to be really, really good, so he works at it. He does a lot of extra things. After everybody’s done, he’s still out there working on passrush moves and all that stuff, which is awesome.”

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Twins rookie slugs 3 off Indians The Associated Press

American League Twins 12, Indians 5 Cleveland — Rookie Max Kepler had three two-run homers and six RBIs, leading the Minnesota Twins over the Cleveland Indians on Monday night.

The German-born Kepler homered off All-Star Danny Salazar in the first and third innings and hit another off Cody Anderson in the sixth. Kepler became the first Twin to homer three times in a game since Justin Morneau in 2007. He also had a single.

Joe Mauer was 4 for 4 and homered in the eighth off Andrew Miller, who was making his first appearance with Cleveland after being acquired Sunday from the Yankees.

Jose Berrios (2-1) retired 15 straight after a three-run first inning.

The rookie right-hander, recalled from TripleA Rochester before the game, allowed four hits in six innings.

Salazar (11-4) lost for the first time since May 22. The right-hander allowed three homers and was charged with six runs in two innings, the shortest outing of his career.

Miller received a standing ovation from the crowd of 15,018 when he ran in from the bullpen.

He retired Kepler on a groundout, the only other batter he faced.

Preparation for the current system took off, according to Cozart, with quarterbacks picking Beaty’s brain as they all met together to review necessary adjustments.

“We have the pictures to the test before we get out there,” Cozart explained. “We watch so much film and we know what the defense is trying to do to us.”

Pace, the QB added, serves as a distinct weapon in Beaty’s Air Raid.

The Jayhawks plan to snap the ball more quickly than they did last season, when offensive coordinator Rob Likens called in the plays.

“Utilizing tempo makes the defense line up to where we know exactly where to go with the ball,” Cozart said, explaining the faster Kansas moves the more difficult it becomes for defenses to disguise their coverages.

MINNESOTA TWINS’ MAX KEPLER (26) GETS CONGRATULATIONS from Joe Mauer after hitting a two-run home run off Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Danny Salazar during the third inning, Monday in Cleveland.

Astros 2, Blue Jays 1, 14 innings Houston — Carlos Correa’s RBI double in the 14th inning gave Houston a victory over Toronto.

Jose Altuve, who homered earlier in the game, opened the 14th inning with a single to shallow left field off former teammate Scott Feldman (5-4), and Correa followed with his hit off the fence in right-center field. It gave Houston its ninth walkoff win this season.

Feldman was traded from the Astros earlier Monday.

Michael Feliz (7-1) pitched a perfect 14th inning after Chris Devenski pitched 4 1/3 perfect innings after entering the game in the ninth.

Russell Martin tied the score with a leadoff homer in the ninth against Astros closer Will Harris.

to stick with his longtime summer team, Swaghouse, instead of jumping ship.

“He’s proof that you don’t have to play for a big-name shoe team or attend a nationally known high school to make big waves,” Bossi wrote.

With Kansas expected to lose senior Frank Mason III and freshman Josh Jackson off of the 201617 squad — and possibly juniors Devonté Graham and Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk, as well — Garrett would join Mississippi State transfer Malik New-

man, who will sit out this season, as two new pieces in KU’s backcourt heading into the 2017-18 season.

Garrett chose Kansas over offers from Baylor, Connecticut, Iowa State, K-State, Oklahoma State and Texas, among others.

Before a damaged shoulder forced him to miss the final eight games of last season (earning Cozart a medical red shirt in the process), he completed 62.9 percent of his 105 pass attempts, for 752 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. However, Cozart thinks this fresh offensive attack suits him better than what he has run previously at KU. What’s more, Cozart described Beaty’s scheme as “so much easier” to handle at the line of scrimmage. Last season, the Jayhawks at times lined up before a down and then turned their attention to the sideline for a check, according to how the defense lined up across from them.

Cozart, who will battle sophomore Ryan Willis for KU’s starting job during the upcoming preseason camp, doesn’t anticipate any QB making as many checks this fall.

“We probably can run anything against whatever,” Cozart said. “We can go. There’s answers within the play.”

To further ensure they understand each possible solution on everything within KU’s playbook, Cozart said the quarterbacks spent their days since the end of spring football preparing for preseason practices, which begin Thursday. The veteran said the QBs knew they had to enter camp ready to fire.

They did so by working together in seven-on-seven situations, studying video as a group or individually and utilizing spare offseason time to run through passing drills without the help of coaches.

In the past several months, Cozart also tried to become an expert on the uptempo attacks of West Virginia, Oklaho-

ma and TCU, and even studied Johnny Manziel’s time at Texas A&M. “Just seeing where they started and eventually where they are now,” Cozart said, “it just gives me the vision that we can do the same thing.”

When Beaty talks with KU’s quarterbacks, he says he can tell they are better grasping his offensive design.

“They’re excited about being in an offense that’s been — it’s proven to be productive, you know. Just about every team that runs it,” Beaty said of the Air Raid, “has been very productive. If you track their statistics in one category or another they’re up near the top of the country.”
